If Curnow is there, you have to take him. Even if he is a player we develop and trade down the road, he is best available by far at 9, if he's there.
Id rather Milera Francis H McKay Oliver weideman and parish ... Would have him after that

Can't see Carlton passing him up at 8 with his brother there

Sure, but we're starting to see Phantoms where none of the players you've listed are still available.

Surely Carlton take him if he's there.

Yep you would almost be certain

Phantoms will be miles off this year
 
Carlton won't take him at 8 because they know we won't take him at 9.

Why wouldn't we? Top five talent.

Go home is no reason to not take a player worth a lot more than our pick.

Develop him for a year and trade, if need be.

Collins in Adelaide quoted on AFL.com ' I've spoken to the crows a lot and be happy to come down here '

Make no mistake , one of our selections will be a KP player

There are about 8 kids who think they could end up at Adelaide at pick 13

Tells me out recruiters have left nothing to chance and also keeping the other clubs guessing which is crucial with 2 picks close to each other

I like it

Although it depends a bit on who's left, I tend to agree with this. With the loss of Pods and Siggins(neither replaced in trade week) and a supposed poor tall draft next year I can very much see us going tall with one of our picks.
 
I think we will do real well,

We know the players we want and have got the picks in range IMO

We cauldron of traded up the draft but didn't, reminds me of our choice to slide down last year and still get lever (future captain)

I have my faith we will select well

Adelaide is well placed to snag Collins at pick No. 13 and although he'd only landed in the city hours earlier, the 17-year-old said he liked what he'd seen.

"It looks pretty good, yeah, a nice place," Collins said with a smile. "Beaches look good."

"I've spoken to [the Crows] a fair bit; if they picked me I'd be happy to come down here."

The AFL's official Snapchat account posted a a clip of Milera being interviewed today on the AO footbridge. He was saying that the dream result for him is to be drafted to Adelaide so he can stay at home.

Feeling's mutual Wayne.

I really hope he mentioned this in all his combine interviews. I want him or Francis bad!

But WW has said there is no way we will take Collins, even went so far today as calling taking Collins and Tucker a disaster...

I agree with you. Nothing wrong with Collins or Tucker from what I've seen (bugger all admittedly, just highlights videos).

Why wouldn't we? Top five talent.

Go home is no reason to not take a player worth a lot more than our pick.

Develop him for a year and trade, if need be.

I'm less concerned with the go home factor, it's the DUI. Not just the DUI but it's close proximity to the draft. You'd have to be a freaking idiot to gamble with your career like that, not to mention your own and other peoples lives.

I wouldn't take Francis with our first pick if he'd done the same. Says a lot about him I reckon.
 
Sure, but we're starting to see Phantoms where none of the players you've listed are still available.

Surely Carlton take him if he's there.

We can have 1 of:

Francis .. Milera .. Oliver .. H.McKay .. Parish .. Weideman .. Curnow

and 2 of:

Francis .. Milera .. Oliver .. H.McKay .. Parish .. Weideman .. Curnow
Burton Hibberd Tucker Collins AhChee B.McKay Gresham Bonner Clarke Balic ...

Xmas is looking alright.

I just have a feeling that some curveballs will be thrown by recruiters on draft night seeing as so many teams have two early picks. I would imagine one of the two picks could be needs based. So a player like Collins will go earlier than expected. That's the only way someone like Francis will fall to us.

I get the feeling that Collins is a bit underrated on this board. A very good key defender who doesn't get beaten. Similar type of player to Talia. We could do a hell of anlot worse than Collins.

I for one would be pretty happy with Collins-Talia-Lever tall defensive trio. That gives us all sorts of flexibility and coverage in the defensive 50.

Sure he is not a sexy pick but neither was Talia at 13.
